1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?

I started shortly before Easter 2004 on the PS2. My highest job currently is Black Mage @ 70

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?

I live in the Detroit, Michigan area. I would be willing to travel out of state to attend live events if they were closer. Plane tickets are well outside my budget.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?

Summer is perfect for me. 2 days is generally best for an event with this much focus on one thing. Anime/game conventions can get away with 3-4 days due to the sheer volume of content.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.

I did not attend. It felt a little bit like reheated VanaFest leftovers. I was excited going into the weekend of Fan Festival, only to be partly disappointed in the amount of new information received.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

-The Live Quest for starters. I was disappointed to hear they dropped it.
-A wider variety of panels. Anime cons are notorious for having a plethora of panels to attend. Maybe let a few of the big endgame sites have a panel or 2 to discuss endgame content, like a panel dedicated to Salvage. Live demonstrations in these panels would be awesome (FFXI on a Projector IS cool to look at.)
-Keep the costume and art contests.
-Dev. Team Q&A was lacking. More questions answered would be appreciated as opposed to having to read them on places like the "Creators Blog Z."
-Ballista and Brenner tournaments. It might not appeal to everybody, but it'll be something to do @ the event.
-Keep the Special BC fights.
-New content demonstrations. Having MMM available to play was a boon.

Contact me by the PM system please.

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?
Since 2004, can't remember exactly when that year, just remember it was the year before I graduated college (class of '05). I have 8 75 jobs: WAR, WHM, RDM, PLD, NIN, COR, SCH, and BRD.

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?
I live in Pennsylvania. I'm willing to travel outside of PA, and even a good ways away, but California is just too far to be economical. The location of this year's fan festival, for example, is 2622 miles away from me (according to MapQuest), so it would be nice to see something maybe on the East coast.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?
Since the current annual Fan Festival happens in December, it would maybe be nice to do another event on the other end of the country in June or something.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.
I couldn't justify the trip, to be honest.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?
Information from the developers and just a chance to get together with a lot of other people who play and have a good time.

Please let us know whether you wish to be notified via Allakhazam.com PM or email.
PM is fine.

1. I have been playing Final Fantasy for about 3 years. I started the first day the game opened up to playstation 2 .

2. I live in Baltimore, Maryland. I would happily travel to an east coast location for an event. There will be no plane trips for me to the west coast.

3. I would prefer events to be held one or two days in September.

4. I didn't attend Fan Fest because it was on the west coast. It looked like an exciting event. I wish I could have played those demos.

5. I would like to see the Devs beat absolute virtue and pandemonium warden. I also want to see a "test your might" area included into FFXI. Will be good to see how DD compare in a controlled test.

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?
I've been playing Final Fantasy XI since the North American release on PC. I have two jobs at level 75, an additional two above 60, and have a second mule account that is fast approaching 75.

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?
I live in Washington, DC, and I have in the past traveled as far as Santa Monica (for the first Fan Festival) to attend a live event.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?
I prefer Spring timeframe, as the November time is too close to holidays to be practical. I prefer the events to be a minimum of three days with plenty of activities to do.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.[b/]
I was unable to attend as I got married in October. From the sounds of things it went really well, and I would have loved to see Moblin Maze Mongers in action before anyone else!

[b]5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

This may have been in effect for this year's event, but for the first event, I would have liked free wireless connectivity and/or XBox 360s/PS2s/PCs available for playing our own characters during the event. Another option would be allowing us to create a copy of our characters in a test world where we could do things like try to beat Absolute Virtue, fight the Kings, etc.

I prefer to be notified by email.

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?
I started playing in December of 2003. My highest was once a 71 SAM, but I deleted him, only to restart... and now I have a 49 RDM I play very casually. =)

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?

I live in CA, and I'd totally travel if I had the funds at the time... and guaranteed entrance into said event.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?

I suppose summer works best, and I'd prefer them to be over a weekend, so two days.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.

Nope, the tickets sold out like, that day? I wish they'd used a bigger venue. This particular FF didn't seem as monumental as they have been in the past.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

More cool in-game items, opportunities to buy/win stuff, and um, free xp?

Should I somehow win, please notify vial email. =)

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?
Since the NA release, so 5 yrs.
75.

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?
California.
I'd prefer not to, but if it's close enough I wouldn't mind.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?
Whenever the weather is best for where they're being held.
1-2 days.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.
I did attend, and felt there was too much down time between activities with nothing to do. It would have been nice if they brought the carnival games back.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?
More inside info about things in the game people haven't figured out yet, like hidden effects on items.

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?

Been playing since COP launch and my highest jobs are 75 Sam and Drg.




2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?

Live in FL currently, plan on moving to NC or VA soon and yep, more than willing



3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?

Summer months seem to be perfect for events IMO. 2-3 days, preferably weekend, seem to bring out best in results from what I seen, weekdays are usually hectic


4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.

Unfortunatly since I am on the east coast I could not. I had friends who have attended for the last few years that always comment on how great it is, and from transcripts I read it seems pretty fun, but the last thing I can do is travel from one coast to another. 6 hours driving distance is workable if its over a weekend, but a single day and I'd have to fly in this economy however is not.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

Content so far seems pretty good, but what about a "Mini-ballista tournament? I never hear of those things at fanfest. In other words, devs let you whip a custom character to your choosing capped at 75 with all merits at your disposal and whatever item combination of your choosing. Should be... interesting, assuming it can be conveniently done.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.


I didn't, as the tickets were sold out ridiculously fast. From what I heard about the event, it was pretty much a downer. However, I did enjoy some of the interviews that were put out.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

I've actually never been to one, so just to experience the surprises would be fun enough for me.

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?

I have been playing since 3/2004

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?

I live in Cincinnati, OH. I probably wouldn't travel solely for a FFXI live event.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?

I don't really like to go to event in winter. Spring, summer, fall is much preferred. It is always nice when an event lasts longer than a day for those who travel just to go to that event.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.

I did not attend. It sounded like it was fun, though. If it was closer to home I would have gone.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

If I went to a live event I would like to see vendors with related art, action figures and technologies related to playing FFXI.

I've been playing since NA release on the PC and I currently have 75Mnk & 75Blu.

I live in Pennsylvania and I am willing to travel (inside the US).

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?

Spring or Fall so that they don't fall so close to holidays and three days would be a fair amount of time (Friday, Saturday & Sunday) so that folks won't need to be rushed through the various content being presented.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.

Yes, I did attend Fan Festival 2008 and as it was the 1st one that I was able to make I thought it was very fun. Although, I wish we had more time to enjoy the gameplay content that was available.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

Information about the upcoming expansion or update as well as more hands-on gameplay components of said upcoming content.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?


I like the current content that's in the events. In addition, a mini Mog Bonanza-ish event would be nice to see during these events, held only for attendees. Not prizes the size of the actual Mog Bonanza, but smaller rewards for winning.

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?

I have been playing FFXI for just over 2 years now. My highest job/s --> 75 BLM DNC SAM.


2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?

I live in Bay City, Michigan. Yes I would absolutely be willing to travel to an event such as Fan Fest.


3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?

Around the holidays it is kinda hard on the pockets so a spring/summer event would be nice. Not to mention more activities that can be done outside.


4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.

I wish. I'd have to clear it with the wife first and then I would need to be able to get a ticket ; ; I did however read everything I could find on the Fan Fest. (lil disappointed there isn't more but still happy there's something)


5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

BIGGER ADVERTISEMENT OF UPCOMMING EVENTS!!! I did't even see it until it was sold out. Which leads to Larger attendance. And that could possibly lead to a summer event held outdoors. Since I have never been able to attend an event I don't know how everything is set up. Maybe a world set up so that all attendants can log in to that world with their char. and play/pt with the others they are sitting right next to.

1. Since the 360 Beta.

2. California, and it depends on how close the other state is.

3. Summer or closer to the end of the year seems nice, 2-3 days if I was coming in from out of state.

4. Yeah, it was fun, open bar was awesome etc etc, could have done with more events though.

5. Honestly I don't know, I had heard the live quest and taru races were fun though so I'd like to see those.

PM is fine if I somehow win haha.

I have been playing for about 5 years, 70 <Dark Knight> <You can have this>

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?
Birmingham, Alabama. I would be willing to travel, but preferably somewhere on the east coast.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?
Spring or summer is usually the best time of year for such events I think.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.
I did not attend. It sounds like it was a pretty cool event

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?
Codes for in-game items, quests throughout the venue, costume contests, a team beating AV in real-time

I would prefer to be contacted by e-mail
#250 Dec 21 2008 at 10:51 PM Rating: Good

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?

I've been playing FFXI since May of 2004, and across 3 characters have had a 75 Bard, Thief, Beastmaster, Puppetmaster and Samurai.

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?

I reside in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and would really only travel within Ontario, and even then probably only towards southern Ontario.

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?

Anytime between May and September if they were ever in Canada to avoid bad road conditions. Good length would be 2 days unless on a long weekend, then maybe 3.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.

No, didn't manage to attend. From what I've read though, seems like everyone had a good time, and thing went more smoothly the second time around since it was a limited number of people.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?

Since I've never been, I don't think I could make many suggestions, and certain things I would say might have already been done. The one thing I would like to see is perhaps multiple fan fests throughout North America and Europe to give all fans a chance to experience. Have a fan fest tour of the world 09!

Either or is good, PM or e-mail.

1. How long have you been playing FINAL FANTASY XI and what is your highest level job?
I started my account in my freshman year of high school so.... about 5 and a half years or so? My highest jobs are White Mage 75 and Summoner 75

2. Where do you live and are you willing to travel out of state to attend live events?
I live in California and I would prefer to not need to travel 3000 miles for an event. If it was held in Nevada I would go, but not much farther. Boo college students having no money Q_Q

3. What time of the year would you prefer live events to be held? How many days would you like them to be?
Either Spring or Autumn. Weather is usually mild and that's always nice. 2 Days plus an early registration day would be perfect.

4. Did you attend Fan Festival 2008? If so, what did you think? If not, please let us know what you thought of the event.
I thought the content of the event and the amount of *new* information released was rather lacking for the amount of money I payed to travel to LA. If it was 2 days, I would have been happier, but seeing the people I've been talking to in a game is what really made it for me.

5. What kind of content would you like to see in upcoming live events?
More testable content. Maybe a live showing of upcoming HNMs or a drawing to have lunch with the Dev Team (lulz). Also allowing more tickets to be sold would be fantastic as a majority of my linkshell could not attend.

Please notify me via E-Mail :)
